I wasn't arguing against capitalism, I was just wondering why you believe that Marxist/ Trotskyist is the only viable alternative to that? I don't know anyone who believes in that.Spigzy wrote: ↑Fri Feb 16, 2024 6:35 pm
Ultimately capitalism is the only way society moves forwads, if you think you have a socialist system that doesn't end in misery, then more fool you. What happened to Musk can happen to anyone - as everyone celebrates and encourages such a dismal decision, it won't be a billion dollar pay day, it'll be the boot of Big Brother (insert communist name here) telling you that you cannot have your $1k teacher salary, because you're rich and the farmers have no food.. Solidarity Reg!

Tesla posted its first full year of net income in 2020 – but not because of sales to its customers.

“Remember, when you are dead, you do not know you are dead. It is only painful for others.
The same applies when you are stupid.” ― Ricky Gervais
Delaware is not "a state where shareholders rights can be canceled by a woke judge stroke of a pen."
To the contrary, businesses choose Delaware because litigation results are more predictable costs are therefore lower. There is a long history of Delaware corporate law precedent which businesses use to plan ahead. Your description of Delaware is just another opportunity for you to display your arrogance and ignorance about matters beyond your comprehension and control.

Spoken like a true beancounter.
With zero long term business insight
Texas and Nevada will benefit hugely from that judgement. It's started already.

Please provide a citation to objectively verifiable data to support your claim that "It" (i.e., the exodus of businesses from the state of Delaware) has "started already."
Why would I waste my time with an anonymous coward?
Do your own research. Listen to the all-in podcast with a few billionaires who discussed the case and will from now incorporate their new structures in other states.

What is cowardly about asking for substantiation of your specious claim? Ad hominem attacks are a substitute for real evidence.
You are also anonymous.
Money worship is idolatry.

Logos has overreached in his touchingly persistent attempts to worship at the feet of Musk.
There is no discernible evidence that companies are leaving Delaware. That, of course, is why he peevishly couldn’t be bothered to post any - it doesn’t exist.
What there is of course is a lot of noise which will likely come to nothing, something logos himself implicitly stated when he talked fawningly of podcasts featuring billionnaires saying they ‘will’ move. They likely won’t.

And your alternative is?
For the same reason Usain Bolt holds the 100m World Record, there will always be a Buffett, Gates, Bezos, Musk - the names change, but the "1%" rule never does. If you want to look at Mao, would you not also see that he was the 1% with his top dogs (a bit like here), but rather than let the peasants duke it out to climb up or down, some rich, some desperately poor, his style of government basically murdered them by the millions by starvation and some bs about equality. Equality doesn't exist, and it sure as hell can't be forced against nature.

For me, and I suspect many who moved to this part of the world, I like governments to leave me the fuck alone.
Capitalism is what happens when you leave people alone. Anything else you have to regulate for.
